Context

"... the Bayview Terrace, a restaurant at 5441 Shore Boulevard (directly east of the Aqua Bella building), was opened in the late 1940s. Their specialty was a fish sandwich, freshly caught and sold by the Aylesworth brothers, along with freshly squeezed orange juice from a nearby stand. The restaurant lasted through the 1950s."
